Daredevil: Born Again is bringing back The Defenders Saga characters, and the show is perfect to include Netflix & Marvel Studios street-level heroes.

How Daredevil: Born Again Is Already Teased To Go Further Than Netflix's Daredevil

Even though the Daredevil: Born Again footage at D23 hasn't been released to the public yet, there is already a lot of evidence that s D'Onofrio's comments. While Kingpin is back for the new series, Daredevil: Born Again is set to introduce one of Matt's other dangerous foes, with Muse making his MCU debut. From everything that is known about Muse in the Daredevil comics, it will be fascinating to see how they adapt the character to the world of live-action, especially given he is one of Daredevil's more inherently violent foes.

The ending of Daredevil season 3, even though it acted as a series finale, perfectly set up the evolution of Bullseye, which Daredevil: Born Again is also finally set to take advantage of in the new series. Given how far they were able to go with Bullseye in the Netflix drama, it will be exciting to see how far Daredevil: Born Again is willing to go all these years later. Since Daredevil: Born Again will take place years after Daredevil season 3, time will tell how even more dangerous Bullseye has gotten by then.

It's also key to that Jon Bernthal's Punisher is also back for Daredevil: Born Again, showing the MCU is definitely not holding back on displaying some of the most violent players in the franchise. Then there is also the inclusion of White Tiger, who will also be able to add some great action pieces. Hopefully, before 2024 is over, a Daredevil: Born Again trailer will have been released by Marvel Studios to give the audience a taste of what D'Onofrio is teasing about the series.
